Following the untimely passing of Greek international and Panathinaikos defender George Baldock, after just three appearances for his new club since a free transfer to the Spyros Louis stadium from Sheffield United, it's worth asking where this leaves the Trifylli (Shamrock), traditionally one of the Super League's powerhouses alongside rivals Olympiakos.

France's men, under Thierry Henry, took the silver medal following an extra-time defeat by Spain and could probably be judged the apex of the French government's recent high value investment in top-level sport, starting with winning the bid to host last year's Rugby World Cup.
